Its the sanity loss thats more of a concern, but investigators really shouldn't be using magic except in the most dire situations.So far my player's have learned.Create Bad-Corpse Dust, although it is modified from the version in the book and not known by that name. Elder Sign and Summon/Bind Star Vampire (also known by another name).They have cast no spells so far, this has more to do with the in game conditions of the spells, like finding animate corpse intestines and biting your own flesh off than the attribute drains/damage.I'm having to keep a log of who's read which books (Full Sanity Loss & Mythos ranks), and who just scanned through them (initial Sanity loss only), and who's actually learned spells. They have four mythos works in their collection, but have seen several more, all of them have completed at least one book, but only two players have learned spells.You also need to keep track of who's been driven insane by exposure to mythos as they get +2 ranks, and then another +1 rank for each following occasion.</blockquote>
